I've been looking at Apache's mod_log_mysql and mod_mylo, and if I don't need the extended featureset offered by mod_log_mysql, I can't help but wonder if I'd get any better performance than with something like:
LogFormat "INSERT INTO httpdlog (vhost,host,logname,...) ('%v','%h','%l',...);" mysqlfmt CustomLog "|/usr/local/bin/mysql -uuser -ppass logdb" mysqlfmt Aside from the potential security issue of having a MySQL password visible to a 'ps' command, what's the disadvantage of simply piping INSERT statements directly into the text client? Presumably a CustomLog entry like this would constitute a single, persistent database connection, which would terminate when Apache went away and be restarted when Apache was re-run?
